[QUOTE="Asisreo, post: 8492463, member: 7019027"] But that's not an ability exclusive to Heracles. Anyone can think of diverting a river. It took his muscle to perform that task, though. Same way a wizard doesn't have the spell "Divert River" but has the spell "Mold Earth." (Okay, they do have control water but that's besides the point). The point is that the actual acts aren't something you can stop doing by simply forgetting. If Heracles leveled up, it'd make no sense why if he came upon a new river that needed diversion, he could no longer do it. And yeah, it's kinda not easy to justify why casters can forget the Fireball spell even if they'd have casted it 500 times before. But if you try to really criticize it, it can be waved away with "Magic, duh." And the hulk really isn't calculating the precise force needed to break a Boulder. Other feats, sure, but boulders are fragile enough on his scale that he doesn't need to perform calculations. They're like clumps of sand to him. It probably takes more intelligence to hold a boulder and [I]not[/I] crush it. [/QUOTE]
